Current Delivery Times

I have the same config as you and ordered April 1 for delivery to New York. My estimated delivery was just pulled forward from May 11-31 to May 6-18. It had been as far out as May 22-Jun 6.

I think there was a priority of deliveries the first two weeks of April and last week in March. But since, those like me who ordered end of March on the East Coast are now getting some priority for plant production. Tesla is doing their best to give the entire country a similar delivery delay of 4-6 weeks for common build configs. If you added special options of lesser popularity like Red / B&W Performance with tow hitch your wait may be a bit on the long side.
Since my SA told me ordering FSD option will have longer wait time than ordering without and just adding it later for same price. The downside of this is people who are financing may need to build that cost into the finance.
No doubt, order timing and build is a strategy game with Tesla who is selling more cars than they can make right now. That's a good thing. Buy Tesla stock!
Ordering FSD adds time? makes no sense, this is a software switch, there is nothing different with the car physically.
Nice, glad to hear your date is moving closer! Gives me hope
Hope to see your "I Got My VIN" post real soon!

My advice to you, once you get the vin, after 3 days if you don't have a delivery date, is to email the delivery center and they will pre-schedule you for the delivery date.Thanks for letting me know! Gives me hope I get my vin number soon too
Ordered 3/7 MY LR Blue/white 19” w/tow ; got VIN today, taking delivery in NY (estimated May 4-10.)
it's in my signature field but copied here anyway -
Ordered 03/30/21: 2021 MY LR AWD, white & white, 5 seat, 19", tow hitch

You would think so, but Tesla stages the cars for orders in their parking lot. While turning on the FSD doesn't take much time at the plant, it does set the shipping staging as cars are waiting for a carrier to destination. If an order for a build comes in for a config but one coming off the line is the same plus FSD then they don't remove it to fill that order. Instead, they hold it in staging for the next order coming in. At least, that's how Tesla SA explained it. Whether you agree with their production planning or not, it is what it is and they are not out swapping certain features as the orders come in.
edit- I should mention that you can add FSD after your initial order at any time. Just can't remove it without affecting your delivery schedule.
In the beginning of the month I saw many of my color combo but with induction wheels option. Why couldn't they just swap the wheels to what I ordered? It was the same explanation, even though there was an inventory car right here in my backyard they would only sell to me if I paid for those wheels. That inventory car did get taken a few days later.

I just realized we have the same config, and are fairly close to one another. Are you taking delivery at Chicago?

That's only an extra hour for me, I'd pick up there if it meant getting it any sooner!
No VIN here yet and in Dallas area.
Date slipped one day again:
5/3-5/13. I am always 12 days away; they move that first date one day every day, but the delivery window keeps getting shorter and more condensed. I guess they are expecting production very soon.
When we talk to our SA more than a week ago he said they expect transport in second week of May. Will call again on Friday if they have any updates. Tesla Schaumburg is only 1 mile from my house

I was told a similar timeline for delivery in Highland Park. But that was a couple weeks ago.When we talk to our SA more than a week ago he said they expect transport in second week of May. Will call again on Friday if they have any updates. Tesla Schaumburg is only 1 mile from my house
